Summary: the giver
Review: Im reading this book in class , and i love it so much ! It's such a good story ! It really makes you greatful for where you live and the life you have . Jonas , a 12 year old boy who lives in a Utopia ,goes on several adventures . The community has no pain , no memory , no feeling , and no color ! The story really takes on an interesting concept ! It's hard to understand at times , but over all this is my all time favorite book! i never want to put it down !!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Good book and kept you interested
Review: This book was great! It really kept you interested. We never got bored. The ending though, was kinda confusing. It didn't tell you what happened after he went down the hill. Did he die or did he live? Did he find the Elsewhere he was looking for? The ending was to undiscribed. The rest of the book was great however! Mrs. Lowry, thank you for writing this book. You made us think!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: one of the best
Review: Lois Lowry is a great writer. Its a book you dont want to put down. If you think that the world we live in is bad you should read The Giver, cause they dont have all the things we have it has no color nothing you dont even get to have a opinion. If you read this book you will have a differnt perspective of our community. But one thing I didn't like about the book was the ending it should of told more at what happened to Jonas and Gabe.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: great book
Review: One of my favorite parts is when they go elsewhere. It is a good book but it gets a little boring. I wish she would have had a longer ending.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Good Book
Review: I liked the book because it made me think. I think the author's prupose was to tell us to look at the things we have in our real world. I thought the author handled the resolution good. It makes you think how you want the story to end.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best of the Best
Review: The Giver is a book you would have to read. The book keeps you thinking on whats going to happen next. This book is the best of the best books i have ever read. Their couldn't be a better book then the Giver. The best part about the book is when Jonas starts recieving memories and he finally starts to see color. Jonas is a brave boy. Trying to save the town from sameness. And in the end he had succeeded

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Unforgetable
Review: I think the Giver is an interesting book that was well described by Lois Lowry. The characters were my favorite part, due to the well description. Lois brought up many different issues in the book, such as a world with no religion, abortion, and sameness. His world has no color, and that makes you thankful for what you have. I disliked the ending, I did not like how it made me pick my own ending. I like endings told to me, where you actually know the ending and there is no confusion on what the story is suppose to mean. Overall, it is a good novel. I would reccomend this to many people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One to be sure to read
Review: This thought-provoking book about Jonas's perfect community is a must for students to read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A Good Book to Read
Review: I like this book because it is a good book to read.I recommend this book because it's good book to read because at the end of this book you may think a lot of things that had happen to Jonas and to Gabriel.You may think that they die, that they find a family, or that they survive.So I hope you could get this book someday and read it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!(never read)
Review: I think that this book is SO boring! If you get past the first chapter and like it you are just plain ODD!
